Prior Thoughts One

Tomorrow is my first day of going over to the nursing home. To be honest, I'm not quite sure what to expect. I was told to be there in time for the bible study, and I'm glad of that because I believe that the Bible is by far the most important book to read. In response to Elizabeth's comment about being nervous before going over, I completely understand. I feel the same way; I know in my head that it would be very difficult for me to disappoint the residents. If I've learned nothing from working with OP's as a pastor's daughter (which include regular visits to nursing homes), working as a nurse in a doctor's office, and having my grandmother live with us, it's that OP's love the younger generation. All I need to do is show up, smile, nod and they'll love having me there. I keep telling myself that. I can do nothing more except do my best and pray that my presence there will bring glory to God.
